Great campus and sports facilities. Food is available throughout the day, with free snacks. A place to tackle interesting projects, backed by a company that means business.

Turnover of staff is high. It's not unheard of to sack an entire team, then rehire them a few weeks later when the management realizes they did need them after all.

The company tries to promote that it has a good work-life balance, but in truth, they expect long hours on a fairly regular basis.

Don't forget this company is there to make a profit. All other aspirations are secondary.

Quality comes at a cost. That cost comes from having sufficient staff to meet workload and have time to do a proper job.
